A presidential draft law on the solidarity supplement, designed to counteract the negative effects of COVID-19, has been submitted to the Sejm. The proposal concerns financial support for individuals who have lost their source of income due to the economic situation caused by the crisis triggered by the COVID-19 epidemic.

The solidarity supplement will be a benefit granted for a maximum of 3 months, between June 1 and August 31, 2020, and its amount will be PLN 1400 per month. The supplement will be available to individuals employed under an employment contract, whose contracts were terminated by the employer after March 31, 2020, or expired at their term.

The condition for eligibility for the solidarity supplement is having been subject to social insurance in 2020 due to employment for at least 90 days.
